Exchange, exhibit seems preordained
Ironically, the best word to describe the newly forged connection between two art academies - one here in Washington, D.C., the other in Jerusalem - is b'shert, Yiddish for "meant to be" or "preordained." Last week at the Corcoran Gallery of Art and College of Art + Design's Gallery 31, the renowned art school inaugurated an educational exchange program between the Corcoran and the Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design.
